Jobless rate down to 4.6% in May The unemployment rate edged down to 4.6 percent in May, its lowest level in almost four years, the government said June 29, amid growing signs that the economy is on a firm recovery. The jobless population fell 560,000 from the same month a year earlier to 3.19 million -- the biggest single-month decline since the government began keeping records in the 1950s.
